Three Pieces and as few as Four Screws

All models feature a simple three piece design, consisting of the lower bracket, upper
bracket, and main unit. These pieces are quickly and easily secured to the pipe with
either 4 or 6 screws

Repeatable Setup
Regardless of who installs the unit, the results will always be repeatable. The intuitive
bracket design removes the guess work from installation and ensures consistent
mounting by anyone.

Rugged Yet Lightweight Design

The FD-R brackets are expertly designed to be durable enough to withstand the
rigors of the factory environment, yet light enough to be installed by just a
single individual.

Benefits of the Clamp-On Design

No Pipe Modification
Necessary
The difficulties commonly associated with installing a
new flow meter are eliminated by simply Clamping-On.
This design eliminates the need to cut pipes, thread
pipes, shut down machines, contract plumbers/
engineers, weld segments, and much more.

Cutting/
Downtime Welding
Plumbing

No Special Tools
Needed
All it takes is a single Phillips-head screwdriver to install
the FD-R securely to an existing pipe. This ensures that
proper installation can be achieved by any member of
the team without the need for special tools or
specialized knowledge.

Greatly Reduced Costs Conventional FD-R

The FD-R utilizes an ultrasonic

signal 20X stronger than
conventional models.

Automatic

The FD-R automatically
increases its signal strength to
blast through harsh build-up for
lasting detection.
The already powerful signal will automatically increase its strength

Downtime Eliminated

Completely Non-Invasive
Setup
The design of the FD-R Series ensures that there will
be zero impact on the flow system. Unlike conventional
models (mechanical, thermal, etc.), this removes
concerns associated with pressure loss, contamination,
flow obstructions, and/or liquid leakage.

No Adjustments Necessary
The robust mounting provided by the FD-R brackets
eliminates the need for any adjustments after the unit
has been installed. Unlike conventional ultrasonic flow
meters that stop working due to physical contact or
build-up, the FD-R Series provides consistently stable
detection that lasts.

Built-In Predictive
Maintenance
Using Conditional Monitoring, it is possible to easily
identify potential flow concerns early and prevent them
from causing downtime. This is possible using multiple
outputs and the easy to read display, which can show
flow as a percentage of an optimum value.

Frequency B is used Frequency E is used

Unlike conventional flow meters, which typically use only one
frequency for their ultrasonic signal, the FD-R Series
continuously tests various frequencies to determine the ideal
fit in every situation. By selecting the signal that travels
through the pipe, liquid, and potential build-up with the least
amount of loss, the FD-R Series is able to ensure proper flow
monitoring.
The stable transmission of the ultrasonic signal is imperative
for consistently stable detection. Build up or rust on the
inside of a pipe can become problematic over time for
conventional flow sensors. By utilizing the Automatic Build-
Up Resistance Function, the FD-R automatically adjusts its
power to compensate for this build-up and provide lasting
stable detection.

 Trouble-Free Level Sensing
FL Series - Sensing Guide Pulse Level Sensor

Completely Eliminate FALSE TRIPS Caused By:

Foam Build-Up Rust

Consistently Stable Level Detection

The FL Series utilizes the innovative sensing guide pulse method of level detection.
This style of level detection works by transmitting an electrical pulse down a probe and
measuring the amount of time it takes to reflect off the liquid surface and back to sensor.

Internal waveform

Transmitted pulse
Received pulse

Distance
Detection
Foam Point

Build-Up

Rust

Distance is determined by measuring The FL Series ignores build-up and

the time it takes for the signal to be foam by detecting only the peak of
sent and received. the returned signal.

Compatible with Various Applications

Fluid Compatibility Tank Size Compatibility Application Compatibility

Probe Length
4 Independent Outputs
Water Oil
0.2 to 2 m 4 to 20 mA Analog Output

Chemicals
Viscous 0.6' to 6.6'
Liquids Stability and Alarm Outputs
